It is of utmost importance that researchers interested in adding to the small fund of existing information about intra- and intersocietal variations in kinship patterns achieve greater consensus on concepts, measurements, and modes of analysis than has been evidenced in past research on the kin network. Otherwise, cumulation of knowledge in this field will be slow. This point is elaborated via a review of major difficulties encountered in an abortive attempt to compare data on size and extensiveness of kin networks of 111 Egyptian married couples with parallel data elicited in interview studies undertaken in the United States within the past decade or so.
